Buying a reliable small car - Polo or Fiesta?
Can you share your thoughts on the Volkswagen Polo (petrol or diesel) after 2009 as a used buy? Compared to the Ford Fiesta 1.6 (petrol or diesel) after 2008?

The Fiesta from 2008 - 2013 is more reliable. Very few faults: www.honestjohn.co.uk/carbycar/ford/fiesta-2008/
